      Thank you all very much for the info – hard to know what to expect and that makes it hard to make any plans. I will appreciate any more info on pegylated interfuron that folks can pass on. Looks like it may not be quite as tough as the high dose, but still pretty rough in the beginning.

      Our kids are pretty self-suffficient, 14 and 9, so they will only really need driving and homework help, otherwise they pitch in. Mostly I'm just trying to plan things so that I won't be out of town and her feeling like she's been run over by a truck as so many people have described with this drug.

      Thanks again, take care, see you
